Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

Second rate reporter says what?

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

You know he’s going to shit a cat.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

This really is a full service blog.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

I really should read my own blog.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Wait, what?

    John! I would never have pegged you as a Hamiltonian. Talk about big government! I would have said more Madison.

    Another Goofy Quiz

    Which Founding Father Are You? I think I’m equally divided between Hamilton and Adams. I have the ego of Adams combined with the fatalism of Hamilton. (Link courtesy of Balloon Juice.)…

    Big government conservatives

    Alert Fred Barnes! Conservatives like the Federalists. That’s right, the political party that gave us an activist federal court system and a giant federal bureaucracy is now the darling of the right! My evidence? Well, uh, David Frum links to…
